The warrior-knights known as the Mabari were an old organization originating from the planet of Zolan, which was the native world of the Clawdite shape-shifters. Even during the Rise of the Empire era, the Mabari's code endured, exemplified by Zam Wesell, a bounty hunter who followed their principles. Frequently, Wesell carried Mabari inscriptions and symbols, especially a cape fastener displaying symbols indicating her status as a third-level Mabari fighter.
